Biography
Hussain Fakhruddin, also known as Raja Bhai, is the patriarch of Dubai-based Fakhruddin Holdings – a diversified conglomerate that employs over 1,200 people and records an annual turnover exceeding DH 1 billion. Its expansive portfolio spans trading, plastics, beauty and personal care, property development, and joint ventures with two cutting-edge U.S. companies.
Over the course of 54 years in Dubai, he has witnessed the city’s remarkable transformation from a modest fishing port, once connected to the world by just two daily flights, into a thriving global hub. Although the company is now headquartered in Business Bay, he still prefers to spend most of his time in Murshid Bazaar, Deira – at the same shop where his father first introduced him to the world of business in 1971, the same year the United Arab Emirates was founded as an independent nation.
